Logging is important in software development. There are many famous frameworks to be used for logging: Log4j, Logback, java.util.logging… If we wanna change the logging framework without affecting Java code, SLF4J is the good choice.

This tutorial writes about SLF4J with example of how to apply SLF4J in some logging frameworks.

Dependency Management is a key feature of Maven. Maven Dependencies are identified by individual artifacts such as libraries or modules. It is not too difficult to manage dependencies for just a single project but, with multi-module projects, there are many things unclear.

This tutorial introduces the Maven Dependency Mechanism by which Maven helps us control them.

Maven is a software project management and comprehension tool, an open source project by the Apache community. It can also model a standard structure for Java projects. With Project Object Model (POM) approach, Maven provides a uniform and radical way of understanding and building Java project, reporting and documentation with all its dependencies.

This tutorial will go through quite a few Maven concepts with Eclipse IDE so that we can have a better understanding about its standards.

@Resource Annotation is used to indicate a reference to a resource, it is considered an alternative to @Autowired which is an Spring standard. Similar to Java EE 5, we can use @Resource Annotation with field injection or setter method.

This tutorial will cover those kinds of injection which will be used for matching by Name, Type or Qualifier.
